A little taste of eternity in this vivid flower scene- a vivid world beyond our imagination there to be seen.

The incredible koyo have made their way to my area at last. This one was seen in my favourite temple of all- Tozenji, in kita-Kogane. The backlighting brings out their intense, jewel-like colours. I really need nothing else to see in my life!

Orange Crush

An amazing piece of fractal art I found on Flickr. Mathematics can show us the beauty of the universe, as revealled in many lifeforms. It seems to always be there, as a potential- as images such as this show us, which bridge the divide between art and science..

Each moment as the sun comes up has a different feeling to it. Here a mystery was being unveiled, as the trees and their reflections appeared by the swamp-like lake. The original photo was practically black and white because of the mist, but with Lightroom, I could bring out the details and colour. Cheating? Maybe, but it makes for a much more interesting photo.

Dawn Breaks 2

The beauty of Dawn. Taken on Lake Inawashiro in the early hours of the moring, froma beach just outside the place we were staying.

It was a glorious sight that showed me again the great power a silent event can have- one that nature produces every day, but few can take the time to appreciate. So delicate, soft and enticing, yet speaking of such an awesome, cosmic power, one that can lighjt up whole worlds with a rich energy needed for trillions of life-forms. With all the practicality an incredible beautythat just makes your whole being stiulled with awe. In a word- WOW!
